Factory head unitNo factory options — HogPlay Screen recommended
Factory USB locationNone

The 2009 Harley-Davidson Heritage Softail carries the classic touring-cruiser silhouette Harley perfected decades ago — full front fender, leather saddlebags, and the hidden rear shocks that keep the hardtail look without the hardtail ride. Under the tank sits the Twin Cam 96, the 96-cubic-inch big twin that replaced the Twin Cam 88 across the Softail line starting in 2007, delivering deeper torque for loaded highway cruising. What it never had was a factory radio or screen. The HogPlay Media Screen bolts to the bars and fixes that with wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto on this 2009 Heritage Softail.

No Factory Radio — Add Your Own Screen

The 2009 Harley-Davidson Heritage Softail left the factory with no radio, stereo or touchscreen to bypass — so instead of a workaround, you add your own. A standalone HogPlay Media Screen is a 7-inch head unit with wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, live Maps & Waze navigation, calls and streaming built in — we recommend the Screen 7 Pro with its onboard DVR drive-cam. Most riders settle for Bluetooth-only kits that leave the phone in your pocket with no turn-by-turn directions; this puts it all on the bars instead. It mounts to the handlebars with basic power and ground and comes off just as easily, so reach out to the HogPlay team if you'd like a hand. (Media Box support on Screens is in development.)

We also stock universal parts that fit the 2009 Harley-Davidson Heritage Softail and most other motorcycles — standalone CarPlay screens and universal USB power.

About the 2009 Harley-Davidson Heritage Softail

Heritage Softail buyers wanted nostalgia with modern reliability, and the Twin Cam 96 delivered exactly that — smooth low-end pull for two-up rides with the bags loaded, wrapped in bodywork styled after Harley's 1950s FL models. Factory infotainment simply wasn't part of the package on a 2009 model, leaving owners without navigation or hands-free calling unless they added something themselves.

The HogPlay Media Screen mounts directly to the handlebars in clear sightline, so it doesn't compete with the Heritage's classic dash or nacelle instruments. Installation is straightforward: run power and ground to the battery or an accessory circuit, mount the bracket, and you're done — no dash cutting, no wiring harness surgery. The unit is fully reversible, so the bike returns to stock if you ever sell it.

Every HogPlay Media Screen built for the 2009 Heritage Softail runs dual Bluetooth, pairing your phone for wireless Apple CarPlay or Android Auto on one channel while a second channel feeds an auxiliary amp, handlebar speakers, or a portable Bluetooth speaker for real sound on the open road. A small built-in speaker handles turn-by-turn voice prompts and light audio on its own, so navigation works even without external speakers wired in. The housing is fully sealed and waterproof, built rugged enough to shrug off rain, vibration, and everyday elements a Heritage Softail rider puts it through.
